2010 Land Rover Freelander 2 Sport – Click above for high-res image gallery<\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

\nAnother week, another special edition for the UK. New for 2010, the Land Rover<\/a> Freelander 2 Sport attempts to be equipped as regally as its name suggests, with either a Santorini Black or Lago Grey paint job decked out with color-keyed exterior trim, a rear spoiler, and 19-inch diamond-turned alloy wheels.<\/p>\n

Inside is where the thrills reside, with a two-tone interior in, ahem, “Ebony & Storm,” and your choice of cloth interior or a “sports styling pack” in Lago Grey leather. Somewhat ironically, the Sport comes with a 2.2-liter diesel four that churns the wheels through a manual transmission, and it gets even better gas mileage with the fitment of stop\/start technology. <\/p>\n

The model goes on sale next month and starts at £26,695 ($43,581 USD, but bear in mind that UK market prices are higher than those of the U.S.) on-the-road. No word yet on whether North American consumers will get a shot at this model under the LR2 nameplate<\/a>, so for now, content yourself with our high-res gallery below and the official press release after the jump.<\/p>\n
